The Gourmet Tapas and Wine Tour is a self-guided food walk from Gastrowalk, an operator that packages independent tasting routes so that visitors set their own pace rather than following a group. The route is based in Vegueta, the historic old town of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on Gran Canaria in Spain's Canary Islands, and starts near the Catedral de Santa Ana in postcode 35001. Over about three hours, participants visit four restaurant stops, choosing from two tapas options at each stop and receiving one drink at each, which adds up to four tapas and four drinks across the route. The balance is savoury, with a focus on tapas and wine, and no dessert course is listed among the inclusions. Because the format is self-guided, there is no live guide, no fixed group and no set language of delivery; participants follow the route and venue instructions provided with their booking and can start when it suits them within the terms of the voucher. This gives flexibility for couples, small parties and travellers who prefer to linger over a drink or skip ahead. Resellers list the price at about EUR 45-48 (about USD 52-55) per adult, which covers the tapas and drink at each of the four venues. Extra dishes, additional drinks and transport are not included. Vegueta is compact and best explored on foot, so the stops are within walking distance of one another around the cathedral and the surrounding lanes. Visitors with food allergies or dietary restrictions should contact the participating restaurants or the operator before the tour to confirm which tapas options can be adapted, since choices are limited to the two offered at each stop. The experience is available year-round and works as a relaxed lunch or early dinner alternative in the city centre.
